A ball park way to check, take a reading exactly 24hrs apart. The elec meter shows kWh, so just times this by your rate .. if you have primary and secondary tariff, use the lower number.
Gives a rough cost per day ...

How much are you all paying for gas and electricity? I am paying £180 a month for a 4 bedroom semi. It seems excessive to me.
For both?I think £300 or so. 5 Bed detached and an OH who thinks 20c is a tad chilly.
For the last quarter the bill was £40/gas & £130/leccy. Electric stays roughly the same throught the year (mrs works from home & cooker is a halogen hob) but last year the gas bill for Dec-Mar rose to just over £200...
Three bed end of terrace on British Gas Click Energy 5
..just to add I now never pay by direct debit as the theives at the energy companies like to adjust the dd payment based on figures pulled out of a hat and the next thing you know is £££'s have gone from your bank account. I usually wait for the red bill and pay it then

I suggest you have a look at Uswith.com as it would seem your BG rates are a tad excessive.Gives a rough cost per day ...

If your paying by DD call these f
kers and give them your meter readings.
Im with NPower, just had a bill, i pay £120 fixed, they wanted to increase it to £180 a month. I called them up and asked why, confirmed my meter readings which were as per their estimates. Hey presto, you only need to pay £115 a month now.
Where did the £180 come from? These companies charge DD customers whatever they want, and most pay it. for the person that started this post, i would scrutinize what you are paying as it seems a lot of money.

Wasnt there a thread about this the other day?
Well I'm with EON paying £150 a month for Gas and Electric. EON nhave just sent me a letter saying prices are going up 6% so checked prices on USwitch and ended up going with Scottish Power.

I'm with ScottishPower. Uswitch has suggested, for the last six months, that I switch to E-on.
Do you think that Uswitch is running a scam on us all?
